Abstract

India, a nation with thousands of years of cultural
history, is home to a remarkable diversity of
traditional textiles that have been passed down
through generations. These textiles are not merely
pieces of fabric but symbols of local identity, ritual
significance, artistic expression, and socioeconomic
activity. "Textiles of India" is a web application. It
is a digital encyclopaedia of India's textile heritage.
It offers an interactive map where clicking on a state
reveals a popup with images and a summary of a
traditional textile. In-depth content on each textile
includes its history, production, cultural relevance,
and visual documentation. The project aims to
merge technology with tradition, creating an
engaging educational tool that helps preserve and
propagate India’s textile legacy.
